Back in February I met with the Dean of CECS and Chair Harris of the CS department. One "good" problem for them is that nearly all (but few exceptions) are hired after graduation by the existing large businesses in…
I'm moving my family and business to Portland, OR in order to grow. 4 days in Portland and I was able to meet with a couple of dozen people. I haven't seen a better city in this country ready to grow, try new things and…
No early manager's education is complete in my opinion without reading Marcus Buckingham and Curt Coffman's "First Break All The Rules". Do yourself a favor, order a bunch of used copies for your staff to read. I've…
I think the answer isn't just the employment and supporting of people already excelling in the system, it is in changing the distribution of opportunity prior to formal education. We intend to do this by operating a…
I would like to speak with you. ^ is something we can solve together.
I am almost 40. I have been in the IT world actively since 1984 here in Berkeley/San Francisco/Silicon Valley. I have worked in big corporate, nationally and internationally. I have worked with fewer than 10 black men…
Awesome point, Bundini. Not all entrepreneurs need to be leaders, but "The One" in every venture needs to be able to influence others to believe. Cultivating people skills, understanding basics of business communication…
Obviously my comment was misunderstood. Given everything the author of the post wrote about, "No" should be his "Yes". "No" is something you'll hear in life many, many times and it doesn't even phase people who are…
'who's probably' isn't a very strong statement of enthusiasm. Your best bet is for one of you to travel to the other and hack for a few weeks and sleep on the couch or floor if necessary.
You need to synchronize your operations and shake out the trust issue. Set up a mandatory morning and afternoon call at the same time every day. 15 minutes. Spend the first two minutes of each call recapping your…
I only have one comment to offer: No.
Frankly? I had to get a new job. What did I learn from the decision and actions that led to me being fired? Weigh your politics and actions very carefully in the work place, especially when climbing management. Just…
Because in reality it is only a three...
Sorry for my slow response; how does the process handle scaling above 1kb? Traditionally there's a predictable curve of expected performance as the scale of request size increases. Happy to take this conversation…
It may be archaic, but I'm in the same boat with you. If China lined the great wall with dry-erase, provided coffee and a few director chairs, I'd relocate and use the entire space - and a lot of markers... Online I use…
One piece of advice: talk to a licensed professional therapist or some other trusted and professional source of counseling.
My original idea for this venture started over a dinner. My mind had been churning on related business challenges for a couple of years. I was not only focused on highly visible opportunities, I was looking for the…
From my first sentence: serious mistake with a ceramic high-output cook top We did not go with the induction, I should have run gas. I did, however, test pretty extensively with induction. Even in the $6,000 range I…
Have you had a chance to measure operational throughput vs hardware utilization yet? I'd be very interested in loose metrics and stats instead of a general "faster than" statement.
+1 for Jmeter I've been focusing specifically in performance and scalability for the last decade. The vast majority of problems that expose themselves under load or many-request scenarios are blatantly obvious in a…
Is this technology being used anywhere commercially or with intent for commercial use? Can you also quantify how long/roughly how many thousands of hours of effort this has been in development?
Goal setting and achieving requires one of two things in my mind; internal driving forces or external driving forces. A long time ago I was both hired and fired by a pair of brilliant Hollywood producers. The mid-sized…
Serious cook, serious equipment, serious mistake with a ceramic high-output cook top. We did it for the simple reason that my spouse is tired of cleaning up the disaster of a stove after cooking for 12. We considered…
I think the general consensus is that getting significant funding requires a broader team. You have an advantage in that you're fairly far along on the development aspects. You have plenty of equity valued at whatever…
Your question is too vague and not really answerable with brevity. So I'll give you a piece of general survival advice that worked for me. Reiterate constantly that the other party is doing good work, you respect them,…
